This is another favourite of mine, the B-58 Hustler. The Monogram kit is getting on a bit but still not a bad build and intersting in this scale. Pretty straight forward build, raised panel lines are a bit of a pain but you get over it and [...]
I ran out of time to enter a club contest for anything that flew in space, so this was a one week build to have something to enter.
This model represents the X-15A-2 that was rebuilt from the second X-15 that was nearly destroyed on [...]
